[DMANET] LOGOPT 2013: Call for papers

Optimization Methods in Logistics - LOGOPT
29-31 July 2013
Lisbon, Portugal

http://www.tadbir.ca/icaor/logopt.htm

The LOGOPT workshop will take place in conjunction with
the International Conference on Applied Operational
Research (ICAOR). We invite you to join your colleagues
for this international forum. Sharing of ideas, knowledge
and experience is the primary goal of the workshop. The
meeting would be ideal for young researchers to present
their work, even at a preliminary stage, for constructive
discussion and feedback. The workshop covers the general
area of optimization methods in logistics with particular
emphasis on real-world applications, including, but not
limited to:

- Distribution
- Inventory
- Loading and handling
- Materials management
- Returns management
- Reverse logistics
- Supply chain management
- Warehousing

Paper Submission

Researchers wishing to contribute to the conference are
invited to submit manuscripts of not more than 6 pages
either as full papers or extended abstracts. All
submissions will be reviewed by at least two referees, and
successful papers will be included in the Conference
Proceedings published by LNMS. Please use ICAOR-template
when preparing your manuscript for submission but we will
then correctly format all accepted papers for publication.

Papers should be submitted in MS Word format online
through the following link:
https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=icaor2013

Submission Deadline: 30-Mar-2013

Special Issues

The authors of accepted papers will have the opportunity
to submit extended versions of their papers for
consideration to post-conference special issues of the
Journal of Applied Operational Research (JAOR). Authors
should submit their manuscripts in MS Word via email to
jaor@tadbir.ca. By submitting a manuscript you certify
that the contribution is original work and no part of the
material breaches any right of others. Authors are advised
to ensure that they have conformed to the JAOR script
requirements. All articles will be peer reviewed by at
least two anonymous referees.
